Jack The Ripper

`The Jack the Ripper crimes vie with the Kennedy assassination as history's greatest murder mystery. They inspire visions of a black  garbed figure at midnight, stalking gaslit streets shrouded in fog as he cuts down the female population of East London one by one. 

That is the image. The reality was the murder of several tragic Women whom a society shaped by gold, and the hypocrisy it spawned, cast out to be buffeted by the cruel winds of poverty until they were driven under a murderer's knife.
